'Catastrophe' trivia and fun facts

Co-creators Rob Delaney and Sharon Horgan met each other through Twitter.

The dog owned by Carrie Fisher's character is played by Fisher's own dog, Gary Fisher.

The title is taken from a line in 'Zorba the Greek'; "I'm a man, so I married. Wife, children, house, everything. The full catastrophe".

Sharon Horgan and Rob Delaney have several credits on the project; they both star, produce and write the series, and oversee editing and casting.
